I'll get back to you on that
DmA+/DDm7G7F
How many spells and dollars does it take to make the magic

of pulling legends from a hat
AmEm

A honeymoon in Vegas in a plush hotel

How many bullets in the back does it take to kill a singing cowboy?
DmA+/DDm7G7FC
And how much more of this bullshit can you take

But it's gold leaf on a wild, wild, wind
AmEm
And they're serving up your future with a twist of lime
AmEm
Paying you in dollars for the perfect crime
AmEm
And you're scratching off the silver for a nail of grime
AmGG7
And pissing in the bitter wind
DmA+/DDm7G7FC
Last month's colour you're passed your sell by date
GG7
And your days are numbered
What is you shelf life?
Simple song, lots of chord changes (J wrote this one). Listen to the track
for the breaks and play verse chords. "End on Dm stroke", writes J.
